KUALA LUMPUR, Jan 25 – A case of horrific dog abuse has just surfaced on Facebook. A 15-minutes video showing a man abusing his toy poodle, has been widely spread and circulated on internet. The video can be viewed at http://www.facebook.com/video/video.php?v=499892179113&oid=195559180457890&comments&ref=mf. It appears to have triggered a voluntary ‘online’ investigation by internet users in a joint effort to identify the culprits captured in the clip.
The poodle named “Sushi” was abused for its failure to stand on its hind legs. Websurfers exchanged emails and messages via social netwoking sites like Facebook and Twitter over the weekend to hunt down the man and the woman holding the camera.
The 15-minute-and-eight-second clip shows a young man with partially dyed hair repeatedly hitting the puppy every time it failed to stand up straight on its hind quarters. He also yelled at the toy poodle in Cantonese for failing to obey his instructions. The toy poodle was punished each time it falls on its hind legs by being slapped, punched and thrown across the room. Its head was also slapped by a metal bowl afterwards.
In the video, the man is shirtless, clad in only a pair of blue jeans with a black belt and has several tattoos on both arms and a large ring on his right index finger. The woman holding the camera can be heard calling the man as “dear” occasionally. She tried to stop her boyfriend’s action orally, but her boyfriend her ‘warning’. However, she did not attempt to physically stop him from inflicting further torture on the puppy and continue filming this video instead.
The girl who uploaded this clip on Facebook reported that she discovered this clip in a pendrive she found at Suria KLCC. Her action has immediately triggered an uproar among the online community. This clip also drew the attention of Singapore’s SPCA which appealed for more information regarding the clip through Facebook.
The public urged the authorities to take action against the heartless animal abusers. An official from Malaysian National Animal Welfare Foundation (MNWF) told The Malaysian Insider that the organisation was aware of the incident and was looking into it.
